    Yea, this Dodge was my second dodge ever, the first was a 89 (if I remember right) Daytona IROC with the turbo 4 cylinder. I put a manual boost controller on it I made from a airbrush regulator. Didn't take long to toss the rods in that one.

    Next truck looks to be this:



    Used 2011 Ford F-150 XLT (Black Truck) | Serving Fitchburg, Sun Prairie & Madison Wisconsin | Kayser Ford

    It already has air helper springs and front/rear anti sway bars with some sort of sway control gizmo for trailer towing that can activate individual brakes on both truck and trailer to keep things lined up...how that works is voodoo to me and I'm supposed to be up and up on this stuff. I had a 5.0 F150 to use for work when the dodge was undergoing cosmetic surgery from the drunk driver incident for almost a month. I loved that red bastard.



    I think enterprise had no idea I would tow for 2500 miles, drive 7000 and return it with a bed full of screws and broken zip ties Courtesy truck was worked harder in one month than most of these crew cabs see their entire lives. Imagine a 4 ton shred trailer hauled off every three or four days, daily pickups, daily rounds for things like post office, fed ex, computer shops...trips to the VA on the other side of the state...yea worked very very hard. And for a 5.0 v8 it still returned a 19mpg trip average including towing.
